DVB Timer Programming

What You See Is What You Record (DIRECT TV RECORDING)

This will allow the immediate recording of the program currently shown on the Television.

Press the DIRECT TV REC button on the remote control.

If the VCR is in Standby mode with a useable tape inserted, it will automatically switch on when you press the DIRECT TV REC button.

If a "Q-Link" VCR is connected a message will appear on the TV screen showing what is being recorded, or if it is not possible to record.

Some "Q-Link" compatible VCR's will only display the message when on the VCR programme position (0) or in AV mode. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

Recording DVB stations

If you press the DIRECT TV REC button while watching a DVB station, the VCR will automatically switch to its AV input to record the DVB signal from the TV (via the SCART cable), and the DVB programme position will be locked. If you attempt to select another DVB programme position while recording, you will see the message "This programme is locked". Press the OK button to clear the message, or the EXIT button to unlock the programme. Beware that if you press EXIT the DVB programme will be unlocked - switching to another DVB programme will spoil your intended recording.

With a Panasonic Q-Link VCR connected, these additional features are available:

TV / VCR Auto Power On

If you insert a tape in the VCR and press the Play button whilst the TV is in 'Standby' mode, the TV will automatically switch On and select the AV2 input so that you can view the tape.

VCR Auto Power Standby

When the TV is switched into 'Standby' mode, the VCR will also switch into 'Standby' mode if there is no tape in the VCR. If there is a tape in and the VCR is in 'Rewind' or 'Stop' mode (if the VCR is rewinding a tape, it will not switch into 'Standby' mode until rewinding has finished).

VCR Image View On

If the TV is in Standby mode and the VCR sends a menu to be displayed on the TV screen (e.g. Main menu), the TV will automatically switch On and the menu will be displayed.

Important Notes:

1.Not all VCRs support this type of data communication system. Some may support certain features, but not others. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

2.If Q-Link is inoperative, first confirm that your Scart cable is a "fully wired" type. Ask your dealer for further details.
